I know it might feel like a dream or some hype, but it was actually quite an informative class that I went to this evening with my friend (who will be leaving sooner than I on a round the world trip).

While I won’t share all the tips now, I’m tired, I will give a quick overview of ideas to come that will be covered as I try them out. Some of the items covered were:

  • Getting FREE airline tickets (i.e. getting more out of your frequent flyer programs)
  • Mystery Shopping (I’m all over this and will blog more extensively on this)
  • How to get paid for photos and articles while on travel
  • Importing – having shopping pay for part of your trip
  • Getting bumped – how to have this work for you
  • Driveaways – how to road trip it
  • Hotel savings
  • Create a tour and get paid to go
  • Cruising your way for free
  • Volunteer around the world
  • Working within the grey market
  • Air courier for cheap tickets

I learned some great things in the course and will be sharing more as I try them. I just wanted share while it was fresh!

MANAGE YOUR MONEY TOGETHER

Here are some simple guidelines for DINKS to build wealth:

1) Collaborate: Meet regularly to talk about money, set goals together, track and monitor them.

2) Understand and respect your partner. Take time to understand your partners values about money.

3) Watch the numbers. Get a budget, monitor your spending and track your net worth.

4) Max your retirement. Maximize contributions to your tax deferred retirement accounts.

5) Invest in stock. Stocks perform better than bonds or cash.

6) Avoid high interest debt. Credit cards and title loans are financial cancer.

7) Diversify. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
